Political World
We live in a political worldLove don't have any placeWe're living in timesWhere men commit crimesAnd crime don't have any face
We live in a political worldIcicles hanging downWedding bells ringAnd angels singAnd clouds cover up the ground
We live in a political worldWisdom is thrown in jailIt rots in a cellIs misguided as hellLeaving no one to pick up the trail
We live in a political worldWhere mercy walks the plankLife is in mirrorsDeath disappearsUp the steps to the nearest bank
We live in a political worldCourage is a thing of the pastHouses are hauntedChildren unwantedThe next day could be your last
We live in a political worldThe one we can see and feelBut there's no one to checkIt's all a stacked deckWe all know for sure that it's real
We live in a political worldIn the cities of lonesome fearLittle by littleYou turn in the middleBut you're never sure why you're here
We live in a political worldUnder the microscopeYou can travel anywhereAnd hang yourself thereYou always got more than enough rope
We live in a political worldTurning and trashing aboutAs soon as you're awakeYou're trained to takeWhat looks like the easy way out
We live in a political worldWhere peace is not welcome at allIt's turned away from the doorTo wonder some moreOr put up against the wall
We live in a political worldEverything is hers and hisClimb into the frameAnd shout God's nameBut you're never sure what it is
